Roberto Mancini has once again commented on Nicolo Tresoldi's difficult decision over whether to represent Italy or Germany at senior international level.

Eligible to represent both countries, Nicolo Tresoldi remains undecided over whether to play for Germany or Italy at senior international level.

The 22-year-old German U21 international has so far made himself unavailable for selection by either senior national team as he carefully considers which country to represent.

As Italy head coach Roberto Mancini revealed at a press conference on Monday, he and technical director Claudio Ranieri have both held talks with Tresoldi, hoping the Club Brugge forward will ultimately choose the Azzurri.

"I spoke to Tresoldi, and Ranieri did too. But I believe he must feel that he wants to play for the national team," Mancini said, via Football Italia.

"His father is Italian; he won the Euros with the U21s. I think there's a chance. He knows he can be an important player for the future; we hope he makes the right choice."

Tresoldi is currently with the German U21 national team, preparing for their upcoming games against Belgium and Croatia.
